About Me

I am a daughter, mother, sister, friend, wife, and one who is striving to walk every day in the path that my Heavenly Father has laid out for me, which some days, may I add can be a struggle. Thankfully, on those days I know that I can go to him in prayer and he is there for me. I'm always busy doing odd projects in order to keep my sanity while being a mom to two wonderful kids. I'm married to a wonderful and supportive husband who helps me bring my ideas to reality. I love to decorate, scrapbook, organize and take LOTS of pictures. Even though my friends may disagree, my house is not always perfectly clean and the laundry is not always ironed and put away. Remember...I'm busy being a mom and doing odd projects.

Mother's Day

To all moms, I hope that you had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday. The weather here was beautiful. The sky was clear and there was a light breeze. In fact I think I can honestly say that yesterday was a good day. Yes, I missed my mom yesterday and a few tears were shed.

We started and ended the day yesterday by attending church. For lunch we enjoyed the company of some friends at a local restaurant and even though we had an hour wait, the company was good and I would not have went elsewhere. After lunch we spent the afternoon together as a family with taking a few moments to remember my mom. Since my mother has passed away, every Mother's day we release a balloon with note to my mom. The first year it seem kinda silly and the kids were not to sure on releasing a balloon. However this year the kids made sure that we bought a Mother's Day balloon for "Shishee" (that's the name Jonah gave my mom when he was little and it stuck). We went to the park after attach a note and watched it float away until we could see it no more.
